In this short video titled "When a Pig Started a War: The Crazy Story of the San Juan Island Dispute," we'll take you on a wild ride through one of the most bizarre conflicts in history.
You'll learn about a small, uninhabited island located between the United States and Canada that became the center of an international dispute when an American farmer's pig wandered onto the British side and was shot by a local British official.
What followed was a hilarious and absurd escalation of events, including the arrival of American troops, a standoff between British and American forces, and even a British warship.
With expert commentary and stunning visuals, we'll explore the larger historical context of this conflict, including the competing territorial claims of the United States and Britain in the Pacific Northwest.
